Excellent, this is a big improvement in my understanding :) Thanks. I've got a handful of concerns; I'm afraid to give them voice, because I do not wish to blunt enthusiasm :) but this plan looks very optimistic. I don't recommend spending much time learning Perl. The densest of our Perl code will still be completely unintelligible regardless if you've got one week or one month Perl experience. If you've got a year, it'd be more approachable, but the complete lack of datastructures makes the code readability near zero. I'd recommend putting the profile repository at the end of the project -- I expect the other tools will take more time to work on. (You wouldn't want to modify the current tools to do a profile repository, it just wouldn't be fun.) Feel free to ignore my old repository codebase. It was written for Ruby On Rails, an ancient version, and I used standard SQL storage (which might not be the best tool) _and_ I used the SOAP/XML-RPC bindings because REST toolkits on clients were very poor in comparison. There's no reason to try to revive that. :) The repository API may be interesting to review -- if it could be found again -- but there was nothing in the API that was especially enlightened. (It was just a simple CRUD-style application.) It feels like it'd be nice to have some of the simpler / basic tools done 'sooner' than the full merging mechanism -- aa-complain, aa-enforce, aa-unconfined, etc., are all pretty handy little tools. You'll probably want them along the way. :) > Well, I will be the final enemy^Wtestcase *eg* - I'm quite sure you know > how hard that can be ;-) > -- > > "Quite low" is 1 in 4 billion.
